The Douglas County Treasurer’s Office will mail real estate and personal property tax bills Thursday.
The first half of the payments are due Dec. 20. Because that day falls on a Sunday this year, the deadline is extended to Dec. 21, a Monday. Payments must be either made or postmarked by that date.
The second half of the 2009 bills are due May 10, 2010. Taxpayers can make payments online — although it includes a processing fee.

What taxes will be due on the Criticare bulding? Will it be taxed at the current valuation of $1.4 million, or the $2.3 million that the city and county are contemplating spending to buy it?

How about all these churches - some occupying prime real estate - pony up too and pay their share and render on to Douglas Caesar??Oh, we have state supported religion where they can be legal tax dodgers! Thus, churches rob a community more than they ever give(their donations are free too).
